Very cool idea! I like how you can cause your past selves to move along with you if you cross timestreams with them. The art was also very cute! Amazing work!

Wow, really cool idea and very well done, but I wish it introduced its concept more slowly. This game is not easy haha

Great job!

Thanks for the feedback! Unfortunately we didn’t have time to put in a proper tutorial, will probably do after voting ends!

amazing idea with a great execution. enjoyed the puzzles a lot. well done.

Also would love your feedback on my puzzle game too ^^

I managed to finish after figuring out how to properly control the ghost girl, nice job! I read the "How to play" section and I still got a bit stuck on Level 3 because I didn't really understand the ghost mechanics. I think 1-2 extra beginner friendly levels that demonstrate them would have helped me, but still I had a good time and got all the way to the end.

Thanks for taking the time to play our game! Our original idea was to have another character, you can see her in the game description, appear on screen and give you hints if you get stuck on a level for too long. Unfortunately we didn't have time to implement it  😅

This was awesome. The puzzles at first had me questioning if my brain still existed, however upon solving them had led me believe that I was some genius chronomancer. Amazing.

Developer

Thank you so much! We’re really glad you liked the puzzles! :)

What a well executed game jam submission. I loved the mechanic where crossing your path linked the current you and past you together, that worked so well and really added an interesting layer to the puzzle solving approach.

Love the voice acting, the art and the idea. Unfortunately I ran into a bug on level six where the last door you opened will stay open even if you reset the level. Because of that it was hard to remember what to do without cheathing. I also think the jump in difficulty between levels 5 and 6 is quite big. But other than that, it's really solid! 

Developer

Thanks for taking the time to play our game and thanks for not cheating! Did the bug remain even after resetting the level?

Submitted(+2)

Yeah unfortunately the door stayed open. But again, I think the game is really good!

By the way, it would bew great if you could also rate my game! :)

Developer

will do!

Really creative use of the tilebased puzzles! Really had to sit down and think about a lot of the solutions. Art and music were nice too :). Maybe the tutorial could have been a bit more elaborate, cause I didn't know how to cross timelines for a while.

I like the gameplay and I tend to be a sucker for pixel art sprites. The gameplay loop is pretty cool and finding out how to make the "clones?" move. Well made would recommend to try

Interesting that you can entangle (visually !!) your past timeline to make it move also ^^ The art is also quite nice! Character is lovable hehe. Nice work I like your submission here.

Congratulations to the team

Super cute, super creative! After the first level I thought I knew what to expect, but once you start crossing timestreams to control multiple versions of yourself the game really open up. I only wish it got crazier with overlapping multiple timestreams before the end, but either way this was a good time.

Developer

Actually, If you cross 2 different timestreams during the same time loop, you can move both clones at the same time! As you said though, you really don't need this mechanic for completing the levels :)

Very original idea. I finished the whole game, it was very fun! Great work.
